ClassicMacGruber -
Ala Gina Carano. Life is good until you're finally exposed. Once she becomes "human", there's no story. And when there's no story, she'll lose the attention she so craves and has become acustom to. She'll lose all motivation to train and fight, but call it "seeking other opportunities".

some posts are so hard not to want to take a bat to ....

Gina is amazing, and Ronda is psycho-badass. Show some respect please, since you have no real understanding of the sport, those people, or what it takes to reach that level. Thank you

Agreed , so lets take you to bat. You make an assumption just like he did - how do you know what he knows ? He may know the intricacies of footwork , shots , angles , submissions etc.- he can't reach that level ? How do you know he is not a president of a corporation and reached a level you cant imagine? you insult him no different then he did. Except one thing , he can actually see how their body language and attitude is - which allows him to reach an educated conclusion. You assume what ? He can't understand mma because why? He could be a lifelong martial artist - oh that's right no way he knows anything he doesn't have a green name on a public forum - so he's a loser. Last time I checked you don't have to be a fighter to understand mma or coach it successfully - you don't have to be a psychologist to see Ronda will have a very very hard time once she takes a loss - so you show some respect - and take your own advice.

Take it easy Stonemann, Ronda isn't going to fuck you.

Take it easy lifeaftrprison, Stonemann isn't going to fuck you.

Did I miss anybody? :)

Ronda threads always boil down to that. If you defend her you're a pathetic white knight who wants to fuck her and if you disapprove of her you're intimidated by strong women and a pathetic hater. Since this is the UG both sides are faggots as well.

To make it clear, I'm not at all suggesting Ronda has no heart nor that she is a quitter. But I do believe if she loses to Meisha she may just implode and walk away. This I believe because she is so consumed with beating Tate that she may not be able to emotionally handle a loss.

Don't believe me? Look at how she reacted when her "student" Shayna lost, a woman she trained for a few days, to Pena. She looked like she was about to murder someone. No joking, I think Dana may want to have the National Guard on hand for the coach's challenge. If Rousey loses that we may see a full-fledged meltdown.

Elite Alkemist - People with no heart usually dont make it to the olympics or the top of any other competitive sport. Especially a woman making it to the top of a male dominated combat sport and convincing Dana White that women deserve as much of a spot in MMA as men.

Don't tell the ignorant haters this. They don't understand stuff that makes sense. They just want to anonymously hate someone that has accomplished more than they could ever dream of.

Barbasol - She damn near got beat and fought off a choke to win a minute late, she has heart.

She is a poor sport, not the nicest competitor especially when it's against a huge rival

I think you're jumping the gun. Bump this when she retires.

ya watching her fight, there were several chances for both miesha and ronda to have.ended that fight earlier. she is not a level above everyone else like cyborg is, and i wouldnt br shocked if miesha beats her in the rematch.

I don't think there's any question she has heart/dedication to achieve what she has in her judo/olympic career. Back then she was hungry, goal driven and relatively unknown. She HAD to keep going after losses. Now, she's a spoiled "star/celebrity" who the world revolves around. Plus she has other options (an out of mma). When you have nothing else, you have fire and drive. When you have "options" you say f*ck it when things don't go your way...

cyberc92 - I can see her having a complete meltdown in the cage afterward. I would envision it being a hybrid temper tantrum between Nick Diaz/Forrest Griffin.

Hahahaha....I agree. Perhaps she would do that "man-walk" and storm out like she did on TUF the other night. Her post-fight Rogan interview would be like "<sniff> I will make myself pay for losing. I will destroy....myself!"

Gina was natural, real woman, real fighter, real badass. But most importantly, real woman. Cyborg was "not" natural, short-cutted around Gina, and the fans jusat went with the winner. It broke Ginas heart, and I dont blame her one bit. She showed up and "knew" the physical mis-match. She still showed up.

I have met Cris Cyborg, she is a nice woman. I have no hatred for fighters that need or use supplements. But show some decency for the real warriors like BJ, RC, and Gina who did it all naturaly. Gina is and was GORGEOUS, and still a badass, and completely natural. Don't you respect the human warrior side of the sport? Otherwise why do you even give 2 fucks about the sport. Just watch NASCAR and wait for a wreck. To me the sport is a whole lot more than a blood ritual

Rhonda represents an evolutionary era in WMMA the same as the early TMA, BJJ, wrestlers, strikers etc. all did and she is currently so dominant at her skill set that its probably going to take an elite fighter to dethrone her. if and when that happens, I believe she will work to evolve her skills to counter and try to get her title back. plus, somewhate contingent on how such a lose would happen, there will be pretty significant financial incentive to fight a rematch. of course, like any mma fighter, her first loss could be her next fight or she may retire prior to ever losing. shit happens, its fighting after all and sometimes people shock the world.

you don't win olympic medals without championship level heart, committment and determination. and she sure as heck isn't scared.

but the best thing Rousey is doing is helping convince 13 year old girls that a career in MMA is possible and desireable. ten years from now, the next generation of WMMA fighters will be amazing. same as happened in men's MMA.

This guy gets it. Maybe we should give these fighters a little credit for making it as far as they have.

Why is there such a negative attitude for fighters that bust their ass for our entertainment? Bunch of evil cunts on this board sometimes I swear.

Ronda is a great role model for young girls including my 9 year old judoka. That means a hell of a lot more in the grand scheme of things than how she acts on a damn reality show.
